Losing the balance of the scale that failed to tip
A Look from the outside doesn't match within
Never will I compromise
I seek control
Never again will I drop my guard I know
I sit alone for days drowning in the wake of the wreck you left behind
I wonder if I'll ever be alright or will this void in me last forever
Rot in the presence of your silence
In the shadow of the day (I won't)
Apologize for the discomfort and all the hate
The moment that's clear their whispers disappear
At intervals of self; to demean or prosper thought
Step aside again and realize a greater worth
When I paint myself with the ashes of their lies
Stare it down again
I am not my hurt
I rebuke every time you tried to break my heart
Run!
Run! Run from the pain, run from the dark
Run from the dark inside you
Run! Run from the shame, run from the hate
Run from the hate inside you
Rot in the darkness
Rot in the shadows
Rise
